![The 4 product face for less than $40.
Ally is back on The City Girl in Me to show us how absolutely stunning it is to wear the most minimal makeup— which is perfect for those days we have less than 5 minutes to get all dolled up. The red lip is every City Girl’s secret weapon!
1. mark. Got the Goods Multibenefit Foundation [$18] With a foundation brush, I applied this all over her skin starting from the middle of her face and blending outward. It gave her a sheer coverage with a dewy finish — perfect for someone with generally clear, dry skin. 2. Avon Ideal Luminous blush in Earthen Rose [on sale for $6] Along her cheekbones and temples, I dusted this blush where the sun would naturally hit her face for a warm glow. 3. Avon Big Color Glossy lip pencil in Glossy Celestial [$7] A bright red lip with blue undertones looks gorgeous on nearly everyone. A red lip is a great way to look like you made an effort with your makeup, when it really took 30 seconds or less to apply. I applied this straight from the applicator, outlining the lips first, then filling in for a full coverage. 4. Avon Superdrama Mascara in Black [on sale for $6] I kept the eyes super clean with a few swipes of mascara to define the lash line without taking away from the simplicity of this look.

![Great Fall coats under $120
This Fall is all about the sleek coat, and these options are as stylish as they are affordable. I love how easily these can add instant style to any outfit— from your everyday jeans and flats, to that little black dress. Here are three options to get you going for the colder days ahead.
A little rock n’ roll: [Faux] leather and contrast sleeves were all over Fall fashion runways. I’m a bit partial to this sophisticated take on the usual grey wool coat.
Vintage and ladylike: Go Old Hollywood or go home. This shade of brown goes with everything— black, navy, grey, red— especially red, and the fur collar hints at the glamour of the 1950s and 60s.
A timeless classic: This just screams Jackie O on Thanksgiving in Cape Cod. A coat this simple is like a blank canvas. Add a brooch, belt, or printed scarf to make it your own.
Best part? Sign up for the Dorothy Perkins newsletter and you get 15% off your first order AND all orders over $75 receive free shipping. That is what I call a deal.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mb8mf2zAYd1qgv7jko1_500.png)
